Oh well, I'm glad they're still alive.

They were joking.. hiding your plants ??? I'll kill with that joke :((

Not funny at all.

People get hit for joke like that.

neophyte 05-25-2021 02:21 PM

I'm rather upset, but at the same time, I'm enormously relieved. The plants are alive, which is what matters... :)

Oh wow, people will be in big trouble if they ever do that with my plants. I'm glad yours are all OK.

Was this heinous act perpetrated by alleged "friends"? Or worse.....family??????

Reminds me a bit of the story of the first alba form of Cattleya warscewiczii (by the name of 'Firmin Lambeau'). While transporting a division of the plant from the states to England, a few jokers managed to hide the plant for a few hours, much to the dismay of John Lager, who was traveling with it. The division had sold for $5,000, which would be equivalent to nearly $50,000 in today's money.

Mine was supposed to have been delivered today, but it's stuck in transit so who knows when I'll get it :/

So far, mine is showing absolutely no change. Maybe I'm growing it too cool? (About 22C) Or maybe its confused about what season it is? Any thoughts?

Keysguy 05-28-2021 07:13 PM

I finally picked mine up and got my grow area set up.
I'll take a couple pics and post tomorrow.
55 and rain all weekend so not much else to do. So happy to be back for the summer. :((
Not a great start weather wise but we do need the rain.

Mine isn't doing much either, other than sitting there staring back at me. And I still haven't gotten it repotted. :blushing:
